I don't think it is happening for the right reasons and I hope it is at the Ricoh not someone else's patch.

However I am excited about the concept of a load of Cov Kids repressing Cov.

Just hope the spine of the team is strong

like i said last week, if we come back to ricoh i will be quite optimistic about our future

not in terms of results but just seeing the club philosophy in action.

Only need another 7 to complete the team.....plus subs and other squad members. Might be hard to start with, but some way of building for the future.

It would fill a lot of people with pride.
I am sure they would struggle initially but with the right blend if experience scattered in. In the gloomy times it maybe a shining light. It would just be pants if it was in Northampton

I think with signing the right two centre forwards
The right central midfielder
And the right CB

This squad could do something interesting
But if Wilson goes they need to invest that money in four good strikers.

A great comment on the web on the CET website about kids today. He says how someone like Jordan Clarke has played over 100 matches for ccfc and in reality he shouldn't have played 1.

I couldn't agree more with this. I actually don't mind Jordan Clarke and he is decent but to have made over 100 appearances is a joke and shows how much of a lack of investment and ambition there is for ccfc. Relegation looms sadly with all these kids next season.

A lot of exciting young players over the last few years are playing non league now.

Prime example.... I always liked kevin thornton but look at him now. Countless others Lee fowler, Craig Pead, Ben Mackay they are not good enough and we have unearthed a gem in callum Wilson but even he needed time and I would say he is one of the older ones at 21/22. We cant expect everyone to be like him and then expect top 6. Invest in players and better players and you will get the results. We all know league 1 is crap and any amount of money invested with good players you will get top 6.

Glad you are in agreement King! putting my personal dislike against Jordan Clarke aside, I just wish the club would be honest that this is their desired policy because they choose not to invest and are tight as a nuns private parts.

Let's be honest, if they're half decent they will be gone within 2 years. Wilson won't last the summer, we will lose christie for peanuts at a tribunal and the rest are bang average at best...hence why they are in league 1. Yet Pressley Waggott and the youth team manager are bleating on about this new crop as if they are going to take the league by storm. I doubt many have even played at under 22 level yet they will be thrust into competitive league football against big lumps and journeymen. No matter how good or bad they are, how does that aid their development?

Granted in years gone by they have been sent out on loan to ply their trade but we can't go much lower as things stand. I'm sure SP is pretty on board with it all and it is why he was brought in given his track record at Falkirk but surely he must be absolutely fuming with the shower in charge of the club. It looks like Baker, Seabourne and Webster will be the only senior players left at the club at this rate :( I'm dreading to think of who is coming in. The likes of ecclestone hardly inspire me!
